Problem is that people like you still live in denial about what happened to the Pandits – genocide!

This for the “truthful” comments that have come from people like Dr.Vimal Raina, Asha Purna Kachru and Preeti Rana: http://www.thevoxkashmir.com/2013/01/19/an-open-letter-to-rahul-pandita/

Context is that a Kashmiri Pundit has written a “non-fiction” book on how Kashmiri Muslims forced him and his community people into exile. The book is full of lies and the link I am attaching tells you how and why Pundits migrated from Kashmir valley. I don’t think the author Hillary Brenhouse is to be blamed for the factual errors she has in her story because Kashmiri Pundits strongly believe in lies and conspiracies of the 1990s migration, which they endlessly repeat before reporters. Now it’s the job of a journalist to research on his/her story in order to give a true picture to the world. Thank you very much.

nasar ji can you please tell me no. of kashmiri muslims who helped pundits at that time , can you give us a single name who came forward to save them ? when Muslims were killed in Bangladesh( our neighboring Muslims in India stood together to save them , but when their own actual neighbors were killed, their daughters were raped , they were cut into pieces in front front of their children ,what were their MUSLIM BROTHERS doing at that time ?

No doubt Kashmiri hindus have suffered at the hands of insurgency like Kashmiri muslims who still are facing harassment or getting killed, but this story is one-sided. the reporter should have asked kashmiri muslims how they feel about losing their pandit brothers. the way this story has been done, it gives a bad picture of kashmiri muslims. it is like good guys and bad guys thing. good guys are pandits and bad guys are muslims! only a high school kid can think like that.

these austerefeminists are not really feminists, bcoz a real feminist doesnt have to hide her name. i am not hiding here, i am a Hindu (it however does’nt mean that I want to impose my religion on others by wanting khilafat/sharia like things) and a feminist too. and i can assure you that those, whether JKLF or others, even most common men/women in valley, who talk of independence are doing so, becasue they are brainwashed into believing in the supremacy of their religion over all others and even in politics they want only their religion to dictate. hence the critic of these or this austerefeminits, who needs to hide her name, needs to be taken with a pinch of salt. some numbers she has quoted may be right, but that does’nt make the message of the reporter any weaker. i guess it is not even a woman writing this, since their (Kashmiri Muslim’s) women, the way they respect them, as they say, is by keeping them confined to house and reproductive work. i think it is a man hiding under the name austerefeminists to misguide everyone here.

Yes how dare this reporter rely on anything except talking points from Islamic fundamentalist groups. Did they not get the memo and Muslims are the only victims in the world-even though Muslims are the ones actually making trouble in every corner with every religion possible. The nerve of Panun Kashmir to think Kashmir’s hindu inhabitants have any right to life-let alone return

Wow amazing to actually see something on this group. In today’s world the general rule is unless you are muslim your troubles are not worth any ink.

Your story is on the dot. It was pure Islamic fundamentalism, the midnight door knocks, the murdering in broad daylight on innocent Hindus (in one case just to check the new gun from Pakistan) that made the Hindus flee. From the mosques in the villages blared slogans that said, WE WILL MAKE KASHMIR PAKISTAN, WITHOUT THE HINDU MEN BUT WITH THEIR WOMEN. The Pandits will go back one day for sure to reclaim what is rightfully their. But if they do the Kashmiriyat that prevailed in the valley will never come back.

Such a
poorly reported story. The biggest error is that she blames
Islamic militancy for targeting Kashmiri pandits. The fact
is the Pandits were targeted by Jammu Kashmir Liberation Front, which was the
pro-freedom, completely un-Islamic, militant group. Most of the militants
who worked for JKLF became turn coats as they joined Indian military for spying
and also carried out some attacks on Pandits on the behest of Indian
intelligence agencies. The author seems to have worked very less on this piece
as there are other loop holes in terms of the number of returnees. Kashmiri
pandits, majority of them, do not want to return home as they still feel
insecure. The housing the government has given them in Srinagar, out of
about 180 apartments, only three or four apartments have been inhabited by a
few families, which is nothing. Also, the number of migrants is not four
hundred thousand; the government figure is about one hundred thousand. The
author seems to have gotten these figures from some rightwing Hindu
organization like Panun Kashmir, which has a complete fascist agenda to bring
bad name to Kashmiri freedom movement. Next time, please send a reporter who
has done some basic home work.
